Now more than ever it's vitally important that we gather

and cooperation as essential ingredients in a THRIVING culture.

| Keynote speaker for the Social Change Summit: Alexander Laszlo, President of the International Society for the Systems Sciences (ISSS). He will open the Summit by sharing his thoughts on the importance of gathering to have conversations that matter, about futures that matter, at leverage points that matter such as exemplified by this event. This is
the Art of Community--not just the discovery and sharing of knowledge, skills, and resources we offer each other, nor merely the act of coming together with a common purpose, but the co-creation that results from doing so with passion born of mutual inspiration. |

Pre-Conference Community Tour. OAEC
is one of two nearby communities offering pre-conference tours. These
tours are great opportunities to see intentional communities in person,
to connect with members and ask questions, and to be inspired by the spaces
people have nurtured cooperatively. |
